This guy just continues to impress. I've said it before and I'll say it again he is the most underrated rider in the world!
I’ve jumped 120 feet on an RM125 and I can not imagine back flipping a mountain bike over that gap.
100% most underrated, he has to be one of the top 10 on the planet and he has no fear of falling!!!!
@@incredible5587I’d say top 3 there’s not many riders that can flip 120 feet and get a podium in slope style
Could be the most underrated and under sponsored rider in history at this stage!
Well said but he’s coming strong
You are the most underrated rider in the world… Dude you have made it now…. Everyone is going to be knocking your door down… and you deserve it brother… watching every video the min they come out…
I will never understand how these dudes come off a 120' flip and land softer than I roll out of bed. I drop 2' and it sounds like bones breaking, obviously the difference between a pro and a lame. I love how peaceful it is until they crash, then you really see the speed. Amazing accomplishment dude ✌️
He needs to be sponsored by Giant now……….he’s shown off their bike, given them some advertising……..now they owe this beast………pure class Tom
The celly in the bushes after that huge backflip over the 110….Goosebumps. What an awesome moment to have on camera forever.
Tom, as a former motocross racer, bareback bronc rider and thoroughbred jockey, I want to tell you I love your videos. I'm an old man now, but if I were 50 years younger, I'd be chasing you down those hills. You're the best! Congrats on the record! It's well deserved.
Tom, it’s absolutely beautiful to watch you flourish matey, I got emotional watching the first flip with the biggest smile, then finish off with the world record BF & D2D is amazing.. How do you not have a major sponsor and a blue & silver hat bro, you are a f-in legend pal..
That was a career game changer, absolutely love this!
Definitely a new member of the blue and silver helmet club.
It looks like he is in the form of his life at the moment. Really stepped up to that next level! Amazing to see
Dude i felt every emotion with you through the screen on that first 110 flip, so stoked thanks for taking me along for the ride 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
You are an absolute beast Tom !! How you’ve not got a bike sponsor is beyond me. Such an inspiration
He comes off like an asshole while the other riders come off as very upbeat positive encouraging fun to be around. Think about it, you could sponsor this fella who seems arrogant, smug, and like a drama queen or a fella like Matt Jones who is non stop positivity and supportive of those around him who would you choose?
@@franklee6301good point Frankie. Isted is talented but he ain’t humble about it
@@franklee6301 Bro wtf
@@franklee6301 didn't know that you know him personally😂
@@franklee6301 Lol sounds like you are projecting Tom is a very nice guy, pretty humble too in my opinion
And that's how legends are made 👏 🙌
Hodgy: “I’m following… it’s going to be easy” 🤣🤣🤣
YOU ARE THE FUCKING MAN!!!!!!!! 👏👏 The hype level of you screaming "LET'S GOO" as you landed the backflip literally gave me goosebumps, I'm almost choked up! FUCKING AMAZING You 👑
You and me both brother. Tom, thank you. Sharing this moment in your life was amazing!
the hype is REAL!!!
I did choke up.... tears of joy
@@NowWattFPV MTB is probably the loveliest most hype community on the internet haha
@@0harris0 One big virtual shredfest!
Are we not going to talk about the double backflip, frontflips and barrel roll no? Just the 120ft backflip? lol...
What a savage! 🤘
7:59 - Most passionate mountain biker in history!
Lifetime mountain bike fan and ex racer. I'm in my 40s now so have transitioned to motorsports. Never heard of Tom Isted before.
After watching this video i'll be a life long subscriber. The ease and confidence on these jumps is incredible. This is the sort of thing that 95% of mountain bikers dream of doing. Makes me wish I was 20 again but i'm glad to live vicariously through this video. As I watch it I feel the motion in my body like I used to when racing downhill. Amazing footage and riding.
LFG! Isted representing the UK scene with two world records fresh off his Crankworx slope podium 🔥🔥🔥
First Crankworx and now this. Dude, that gold streak. I hope this will bring eyes of some nice sponsors on you, as you definitely deserve it.
Fingers crossed for next successes and upcoming epicness!
Hey Tom Isted! I've watched MTB progress from the fully rigid we rode in 1985 when I was a bike tech in Whistler BC. Your riding is freaking impressive! Stay safe! Ride ride ride!
what shop did you work at ? i rode park 100days a year from 2003 to 2013 . miss the good ole days of shredding!
What a privilege to ride on board this double world record! Thanks Tom 🎉
Love how calm you are when speaking. Also appreciate just raw goPro footage, could see you working for all the speed possible on that last flip.
The sense of adrenaline rush after the first backflip was great, you must have both been buzzing and it almost seemed better that you shared that moment together too.
Best Dark Fest coverage by far.
Shout out BMX.
Just epic Tom!! Have been watching your progression and this is just awesome, you made it look so easy...mad props to you!!!
absolutely most underrated rider in the entire world. you're crazy man.
Tom, this is next level stuff. You are on fire right now and you absolutely deserve it! Been watching you put in the work and it’s so cool to see it pay off for you! Congrats!
This is incredible. And a truly lovely guy to boot. 120ft backflip. What??!!?!
You have the biggest balls in the Southern Hemisphere at the moment. Dis poes djas bru!!! Congrats on the huge sends!
Absolutely mental. There is nothing but absolute perfection to be witnessed here. Well done, Sir. You deserve far more recognition than you’ve gotten! It’s coming, keep up the incredible work. You’re an inspiration man 👏🏽💪🏽
Wow, you're so chill about this! Lots of riders would've made tons of prequels with loads of drama, but you're just taking it in stride. Love your easygoing spirit! It's totally bonkers! 👑
Yes Tom!!! I just watched this with my husband and I had tears getting so chuffed for you!! You're so passionate and determined, you deserve all the success that comes your way!!🎉🎉🎉
your a mad man. props to how everything is going at the min great results in slopestyle, worlds first.. hard work pays and you working hard
Man on a mission!
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Props to all the riders, filmers and builders out there!
WAY TO GO TOM!! Your courage, and coordination is now and forever recognised.
Tom you are next level!!!! I hope they have Audi 9's this year and hope to run into you!!!
Great video Tom! I wish I could hit those jumps like that. Looks so fun. Mostly xc trails where I live. Still fun but Darkfest is the ultimate freeride trail. Thanks for having us along for the ride. 😎 🏆 💪
I think Tom just became my new hero!!! Insanely big balls.
Mind blowing Tom - the boys at Woodies are going to have to get the excavators back out
The giant glory is sick! I have the same bike and absolutely love it. No problems with it whatsoever. Keep ripping it up Tom.
amazing vid, love the hype and the build up and then crazily pushing that back flip record, insane! Loved this vid!
Always been a fan of Tom ..very underrated but keep improving…all the training in his compound now pays off…one of the current sickest U.K. freerider if not the best at the moment…like it also when you and Pilgrim on same video👍🏼
So good I glued to dark fest vids ! 💯👊🏻🤘🏼🔥
WOW,seriously incredible next level shreddage,great work Tom.
Another great video. Absolute epic content. Awesome!! This year is looking great. 👏😀
Thank you. Fire intro beat. Saw the short earlier. Legendary Tom. Congratulations. You rose up to the scene I remember, and now you surpassed the scene. I hope you get a freeride contract. And can do that shit without the competition in the future and just compete for the nostalgic feeling.
This video was insane, you were riding so consistently and just absolutely sending it man you are a legend
There are three types of mountain biking IMO.
1- cruising off road enjoying the scenery and sounds .
2- single track climbs and downhills.
3- crazy berserk Aerial acrobatics , where you have to have mad skills , without fear and be certifiably insane . 😂
You are an absolute animal. 2023 has been INSANE for you. Hope for nothing but the best man. You deserve it.
Tom, you are insanely good mate! That was the gnarliest backflip I have ever seen 🤘🏻
7:00 When Tom doesn't know if Todd made the 110 until he flips the step up and sees Todd behind him. LMFAO you cray cray
So much fucking respect on smashing the 110 then flipping 120! Plus the double flip on the last jump. Absolutely fucking mental ! LETS GO!
Tom your a legend and i have no idea how you’ve done it but hats off mate keep it up
Well done young man, your riding is at another level right now very impressive, again very well done on world record, hard work is paying off
The pure emotion after flipping the 110... Subscribed!
😮 Mr Isted, you are an absolute beast. I salute you sir.
Levels of quality and insanity upgraded. Top drawer, man. Top drawer! 🤟😎🔥
